Vegetables of alternative cultures to the agro-alimentary ones are used, for the paste manufacture for
paper, with the purpose of diminishing the wood consumption and the imports of paste and paper, as well

We previously reported [1] the first
steps in the development of the SPanish Meteor Network
(SPMN) by using innovative low-scan all-sky
CCD cameras that are reaching +2/+3 meteor limiting
magnitude [1]. During 2006 new ...

Since 2005, the SPanish Fireball
and Meteor Network (SPMN) is continuously monitor-
ing meteor activity by using all-sky CCD and medium-
field video cameras up to +3 to +4 meteor limiting
magnitude [1,2]. One important ...

The fall of the Pu
erto Lápice eucrite
occurred in the afternoon of May 10, 2007,
17h57m20±2s UTC. This impressive daylight bolide
was witnessed by thousands of people from Spain, and
is being carefully studied in the ...

Since November 2008, a new robotic observatory is
being setup by the University of Huelva within the
environment of the Doñana Natural Park, in the south-
west of Spain. Most of the systems in this astronomical
observatory ...

It is widely accepted that cometary nu-
clei are composed of a mix of volatile ices and meteor-
itic materials. In a series of seminal papers F. L.
Whipple tried to explain how the irregular internal
structure of each ...

A continuous monitoring of the night sky all over Spain will be completed in 2009. This involves the recording over a
very large surface area of 500,000 km2, but new CCD and video cameras operated by the Spanish Meteor ...

The
SPanish Meteor and Fireball Network
(SPMN) is an interdisciplinary project involving several universi-
ties and research centres with the
aim to study meteor and fireball
events occurring over Spain and the bordering ...

A daylight fireball was witnessed all over
Spain in the afternoon of May 10, 2007. Several pictures of the
fireball’s train taken from different locations in Spain, and eyewitnesses
reports allowed the determination of ...

The SPanish Meteor Network (SPMN) is performing a continuous monitoring of meteor activity over Spain and neighbouring countries. For this purpose we employ, among other systems, several video observing stations located ...

Since 2006 the SPanish Meteor Network (SPMN) has set up several automated video stations in Spain for increasing the atmospheric cover-age of the already existing low-scan-rate all-sky CCD systems [1, 2]. However, in spite ...

F. L. Whipple first modeled the forma-tion of meteoroid streams from the continuous subli-mation of the ice-rich regions in cometary nuclei [1,2,3]. Particles lifted off from ice-rich regions by the sublimated gas drag ...

Historical reports of bright fireballs
are useful to better understand which meteoroid
streams can be temptatively associated with meteoritedropping
events [1]. We present here a preliminary
analysis of a very remarkable ...

Narrow-band spectrophotometry programs
for the study of asteroids were initiated in the
1960s [1,2], which were able to identify clear absorption
bands in the UV and visible, that were used later
on in order to develop ...

Many cometary meteoroid streams
crossing the Earth were formed from the continuous
sublimation of the ice-rich regions in cometary nuclei
[1,2,3]. Another mechanism of producing cometary
meteoroid streams is the ...

Cometary disruptions are though to be
an important source of Near Earth Objects (heareafter
NEOs). A continuous monitoring of meteor showers
from multistation networks on the ground allows to get
valuable orbital ...

Undifferentiated carbonaceous asteroids
have experienced complex collisional histories,
and a significant number are fragments of larger bodies.
Meteorites arrived from these asteroids exhibit an
amazing reflectance ...

The development of a network of
meteor observing stations allows for a continuous
monitoring of meteor phenomena. One of the main
goals of the SPanish Meteor Network (SPMN) is the
analysis of the physico-chemical ...

Several objects have been proposed
as the parent body of the α-Capricornid meteoroidstream.
Among them we can find the short period
comets 141P/Machholz and 45P/Honda-Mrkos-
Pajdusakova, but also asteroids such as ...
